Skip to 0 minutes and 9 seconds Educators are like designers and set the tone for great learning environments and plan meaningful learning experiences for learners. Without knowing our learners, educators cannot create personalized instruction or motivational and stimulating environments. But what is it that we should know about our learners? Research suggests that increasing an educator’s understanding of the science behind how the brain learns leads to enhanced instructional variation and efficacy. Did you know that we are at a time where we have developed a deep understanding of how the brain learns and changes? The discovery of neuroplasticity is possibly the most important research-to-classroom instruction contribution from neuroscience. It means that all educators must see themselves as “brain changers” Yet instruction has changed little. What if we can change that?
Skip to 1 minute and 16 seconds Educators must translate brain research into everyday instructional practices. This course can guide you to bring about that point of change to move forward to know learners in a way that we have not known before and enhance learner efficacy.
